I'm Still Your Mother: How to Get Along with Your Grown-Up Children for the Rest of Your Life

Is there life with your kids once you've raised them?

In this groundbreaking book, a best-selling author and psychologist (and the mother of grown children, too) shows you how to keep your family together for a lifetime. Dr. Spock didn't tell you about Postparenthood, but Jane Adams does in this wise, warm, witty, commonsense guide to creating a close, loving relationship with your grown children.

You raised your kids to be independent, strong, and think for themselves. So once they're grown, why is it so hard to let them do it? Jane Adams interviewed over a hundred mothers and fathers of young adults to learn how they've created closer, more authentic relationships with their kids than they had with their own parents.

She offers practical wisdom about how to keep families together even when distance tugs at the ties that bind. 

Sensible tips on holding them close to your hearts while getting them out of your house. Good advice about helping them start their careers.

And first-hand strategies on getting along with their mates, giving or lending them money, offering or asking advice, being a great-grandparent, coming to terms with their lifestyles, and preparing both generations for the future.
